Our home

Kentchurch Court

Kentchurch Court, Herefordshire, is a stately home that has been in the Scudamore family for over 1,000 years. Surrounded by a deer park that dates back to the Knights Templars, the house lies at the heart of an estate spreading over 5,000 acres.

Kentchurch Court nestles under Garway Hill in the Monnow Valley, tucked away in the once turbulent border country between England and Wales.

The present owners are Mr and Mrs John Lucas-Scudamore.
